MEDIA COVERAGE Providing research and information services to the Northern Ireland Assembly 2 NIAR 38-2021 Briefing Paper 1. INTRODUCTION In the period between the referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership of the European Union in June 2016 and its formal departure on 31 January 2020, the Assembly’s Research and Information Service (RaISe) published 31 versions of ‘Brexit and Northern Ireland: A Reading List’. This was followed by 6 versions of ‘Brexit Transition and Northern Ireland: A Reading List’, the last appearing on 31 December 2020. This new reading list focuses specifically on the period following the departure of the UK from the EU – that is, the period from 1st January 2021. The list is intended to assist Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) and others in scrutinising this new situation, and particularly the ways in which it affects Northern Ireland and the border. For political, economic, geographic and social reasons, the impacts on Northern Ireland of UK withdrawal from the EU might be expected to differ in important ways from the impact of withdrawal on other parts of the UK. Most obviously, Northern Ireland is unique in that it is the only part of the UK which has a land border with an EU Member State. In addition, Northern Ireland is subject to the Ireland/Northern Ireland Protocol. When compiling this reading list, therefore, an attempt has been made to select commentary, analysis and media coverage which has particular relevance to the specific context of Northern Ireland, the border and the operation of the Protocol. The list, however, also includes strategically important documents, such as the published positions of the UK and Irish governments and the EU institutions, and documents addressing the ongoing discussions regarding the implementation of the Protocol. Selected material from the devolved institutions in Scotland and Wales has also been included, given the potential relevance and read-across to the work of the Executive and the Assembly. As the volume of published material on Brexit is vast and varied, this reading list does not purport to be a single comprehensive source covering all issues and opinions. However, the material has been drawn from a wide range of well- established and authoritative sources and RaISe intends to update the reading list as appropriate. In addition to this reading list, RaISe has created an EU Exit Hub with information on the Protocol, Common Frameworks and EU Exit Legislation. The hub also Providing research and information services to the Northern Ireland Assembly 3 NIAR 38-2021 Briefing Paper provides access to the research papers which we have produced thus far, a selection of blog articles, and previous iterations of our Brexit reading lists. The EU Exit Hub also draws together useful resources produced by others, including their own hubs and blogs.

Issues of note: Mr Frank Duffy (Department of Finance and Personnel): “At the previous Committee meeting in April, members raised concerns about the application process for the cross-border programmes, in particular work being undertaken to reduce the time taken for a decision on funding applications, and the perceived bureaucracy that went along with that. At the time, I identified that our aim was to reduce considerably the application process time, and I undertook to do so by at least one third. Therefore, to update the Committee on that, thanks to some very engaged and constructive discussions that DFP has had with DPER and SEUPB, we have reached agreement for a process to be 1 undertaken from start to finish in 36 weeks.
